Hubbell1st ed. 2013.New York Springer20131 online resource (355 p.)Patrick Moore's practical astronomy series,1431-9756Description based upon print version of record.1-4614-5172-8 Includes bibliographical references and index.pt. I. Astronomical imaging system (AIS) components, characteristics, and performance factors -- pt. II. Astronomical imaging system (AIS) integration and operation -- pt. III. Scientific image data analysis and advanced amateur scientific projects.Scientific Astrophotography is a work for those amateur astronomers looking for new challenges, once they have mastered visual observing and the basic imaging of various astronomical objects. It is a wonderful reference for scientifically-inclined observers who want to learn the fundamentals of astrophotography with a firm emphasis on the discipline of scientific imaging. This book is a wealth of information and a distillation of ideas presented by a diverse set of sources and based on the most recent techniques, equipment, and data available. It also includes numerous exercises for the reader, to maximize the success and minimize the frustration inherent in the pursuit of this specific craft. Scientific Astrophotography is perfect for any amateur astronomer who wants to go beyond just the process of making beautiful images and actually contribute to the science of astronomy! "...Gerald Hubbell's new book, Scientific Astrophotography, is the perfect companion for anyone dipping their toe into the digital imaging realm for the first time. The author answers all the questions people have when starting out, such as how do I get the most bang for my buck, and how do I select the right CCD for my telescope?" - Mike Simonsen, American Association of Variable Star Observers.The Patrick Moore Practical Astronomy Series,1431-9756Astronomical photographyAstronomical photography.522.623Hubbell Gerald R969222MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910438107403321Scientific Astrophotography2202179UNINA
